How To Count Inodes For Each Directory
Hostgator whom this website is hosted with limits you to 50,00o inodes per account. So it not unlimited as they claim but nonetheless its pretty good hosting ..
Here is a script that I wrote which helps you count each inodes in a directory
#!/bin/bash
# count inodes for each directory
LIST=`ls`
for i in $LIST; do
echo $i
find $i -printf "%i\n" | sort -u | wc -l
done
# count inodes for each directory
LIST=`ls`
for i in $LIST; do
echo $i
find $i -printf "%i\n" | sort -u | wc -l
done
Also this line seems good for figuring out which directory is using up the most space
du -ks ./* | sort -n
![]() |
